A draft agenda is included for your convenience, please adapt this agenda to reflect the specific times and sections of the Toolkit you want to focus on.
The attendance register should be printed before the workshop and all attendees should be requested to sign the register during the workshop.

Only if you use the workstation format for the workshop would you require workstation numbers. Print the workstation number to label each workstation, this will enable participants to navigate from one station to the other during the workshop.
